Lyrics
[Verse 1] You left your coffee by the window Half cold beside the morning mail Your blue coat hanging by the doorway Still carries traces of the trail I took the long road past the quarry Where we used to stop and watch the rain The old truck groaned beneath the hillside Like it remembered your name [Chorus] If you hear me calling, don't turn away I've got one more truth I couldn't say I was too proud when you needed my hands Now I'm learning how a lonely heart stands [Verse 2] The church bell rang across the valley A little after half past four I saw your sister at the market She said you don't come here anymore I've kept the picture from the fairground You laughing underneath the rides Some things get worn around the edges But they don't fade from the inside [Chorus] If you hear me calling, don't turn away I've got one more truth I couldn't say I was too proud when you needed my hands Now I'm learning how a lonely heart stands [Bridge] Maybe the river keeps no record Maybe the road can change its bend But every mile I put behind me Brings me back to where we began [Instrumental] [Final Chorus] If you hear me calling, don't turn away I've got one more truth I couldn't say I was too proud when you needed my hands Now I'm learning how a lonely heart stands [Outro] Your blue coat hanging by the doorway And I am waiting by the door
